Fairy Tale - A True Story

1 recommendation

"Put aside any thoughts you have that this is just a cheesy children's movie about fake looking fairies. Quite the contrary. It's actually a beautifully shot film about two children in World War I England who set about photographing fairies they find in their garden, only to capture the attention of such historical figures as Houdini (Harvey Keitel) and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (Peter O'Toole.) A ma..."

Barnes and Noble: The African Queen with Humphrey Bogart, Katherine Hepburn, Robert Morley and Peter Bull

1 recommendation

"Charlie Allnut (Humphrey Bogart) agrees to transport Rose Sayer (Katherine Hepburn) on his steamer, "African Queen." As the two could not be more diametrically opposed, the dialogue is as wry and witty as Bogart and Hepburn were in real life. Set during World War I and filmed on location in Africa, the movie also provides a bit of historical education along the way."

A Very Long Engagement

2 recommendations

"A Very Long Engagment (Un long dimanche de fiançailles) is a film about love, war, and many other things I probably missed. It's a beautiful film with amazing scenery, cinematography, plot (good, even though it's complicated) and acting. The film is about Manche and Mathilde, whom we follow (with digressions) throughout the movie. Manche and Mathilde are engaged, but World War I rips them apart..."

War Of The Worlds (CD) by Orson Welles

1 recommendation

"On October 30, 1938, Orson Welles launched himself into mass American consciousness by broadcasting the invasion of earth by Martians on the Mercury Theater on Air show. The radio adaptation of the H.G. Welles classic of the same name was performed by Welles in a realistic news break style that many listeners mistook as real. According to some, widespread panic ensued...whether this is true or n..."

"Pod racers are awesome. Games are awesome. Pod racing games are... *explode* I pwnd this game so bad way back when.

Ken Burns' THE WAR on DVD

3 recommendations

"I know people could probably argue that there are too many history movies and documentaries on World War 2. But the War By Ken Burns is different. The thing I liked most is that it tells the stories of the wars effect on individuals back at home, not just on the war front. At times the series can be quite emotional. It does tell the story from an American perspective, but this makes it all th..."

The Fog of War

1 recommendation

"2003 was the year of the documentary, Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth notwithstanding. There was My Architect: A Son's Journey and Osama's favorite, Fahrenheit 911 and this - Robert McNamara candidly talks about his experiences in WWII and as Secretary of Defense during the Vietnam War."

Shop PBS: The War by Ken Burns; directed by Ken Burns and Lynn Novick

1 recommendation

"From the bombing of Pearl Harbor to the bombing of Japan, Ken Burns investigates the American perspective and experience of World War II. Interviews with soldiers, Americans of Japanese descent and their loved ones give this documentary the additional benefit of first-person narrative. 15 hours of coverage in all, this documentary would be difficult to view in one sitting and some parts may best..."
